Dear OutHistory Supporter:

 

              At OutHistory, we regularly ask ourselves: are we meeting the moment? We think we are.

 

              In the last six months, we’ve published more than a dozen new exhibits and updated more than a dozen of our past ones. We’ve added a large number of new works to the OutHistory bookshelf. We’ve awarded six new fellowships and collaborated with more than thirty interns, assistants, consultants, and content contributors. We’ve improved the functionality of the website and improved its accessibility.

 

              We’ve been a national and international leader in speaking out against anti-LGBTQ+ censorship, fighting for LGBTQ+ education, challenging anti-LGBTQ+ hate, and demonstrating the importance of LGBTQ+ history.

 

              More and more history lovers are learning about OutHistory because its executive director, yours truly, is serving as the 2026-27 president of the Organization of American Historians, the largest professional society dedicated to the teaching and study of U.S. history.

 

              In the coming weeks, we’ll be queering the U.S. bicentennial, observing the U.S. semiquincentennial, and embarking on the next 250 years of LGBTQ+ history.

 

              Now we need you to meet the moment.

 

              Please make a donation to support our history and fund OutHistory.

 

Happy Pride,

 

Marc Stein

OutHistory Executive Director
